Money Matters

What is Gift Aid?

Gift Aid is an easy way for parishes to maximise the value of its monetary donations, as we can reclaim tax from HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) on its 'gross' equivalent - its value before tax was deducted at the basic rate. This is 20 per cent currently. This means that for every £1 donated, we can claim an extra 25 pence from HMRC at no cost to the giver.

For information on how to Gift Aid your regular giving, or even occasional donations, contact the Treasurer (see "Church Contacts"). For a Gift Aid Declaration Form click on "Forms"
